German Wirehaired Pointer Breeders:
The German Wirehaired Pointer Club of America has a list of breeders. Some of these are field trial breeders and some are show dog only breeders.

All of the breeders in the alliance adhere to alliance breeding standards and many will have available wirehair pups.
